NASP Announces Increases to School Equipment Grants ProgramNASP LogoThe Easton Foundations (EF®) has partnered with the National Archery in the Schools Program (NASP®) to accelerate the already tremendous growth rate of this popular school archery effort. In May, NASP® announced the establishment of its first equipment grant program to help new NASP® schools. Contributors cooperated to provide $150,000 for this purpose. Donors also include:

• Shikar-Safari Club International
• Army National Guard
• Mathews Archery
• Easton Technical Products
• Morrell, Field Logic, and Rinehart Targets
• BCY & Brownell arrow curtains
• Papes Archery
• BowTree
• Plano
• Mossy Oak
• National Wild Turkey Federation
• Safari Club, and the Mule Deer Foundation.

This week EF® added $150,000 to the grant fund. Thanks to EF®, twice as many new schools from each of the 47 NASP® states and 5 NASP® provinces may receive assistance to start their archery classes.Archery School Small

Once educators at a prospect school learn about NASP®, the next biggest obstacle to bringing archery instruction to their students is the purchase of the archery equipment kit. Thanks to very cooperative pricing by NASP® suppliers, the equipment kit costs a school far less than its retail value. Even so, the expense is around $3,000 to outfit a school’s Physical Education archery class of 24-36 students. NASP’s equipment specifications are highly standardized in every school world-wide. Each school uses the same bow and arrow. The Genesis by Mathews Archery is a high quality universal-fit compound bow designed for sharing among several student archers. The Genesis arrow was specifically designed by Easton Technical Products to be safe, durable, and effective for the archery student. This principle of every student using the same equipment in archery class makes certain the focus of student learning is on mastering the process of safe and proper shooting. Continue Reading »
